For any company in its ordinary operations routine the emergency response planning, although being an important part of operation management, is still not a matter of first priority. It is obvious because casualties happen not often; they are “accidental”, whilst the day by day economic actions of the company are commercially viable. But nevertheless the better measures of average/emergency response have been put worked out, the better staff is trained to act promptly and adequately to a situation, the less damage or loss will be incurred by the business due to the accident. In full measures it concerns shipping. Insurer is not able to prevent losses; it only can give advice or participate in preventive measures of the Assured. Its mission to compensate accidental losses caused by fortuitous events. If and when a loss occurred give rise to a claim the service of the Insurer will include:

• Recommendations or assistance for minimizing of the loss quantum
• Protection of the Assured interests against claims from third parties for damages
• Arrangements for security to avoid or release the Vessel from detention or arrest
• Provision of security for GA contribution for the cargo interests
